CASEMENT HORSES
Balleymooney was taken to Manhattan, KS, & remained there until 1932 when he was returned to the place of his birth.
Note the steep, rounded hindquarters and large head.
Here are Dan Casement and the Balleymooney son Red Dog about 1935. Red Dog was out of Cinnabar by Old Joe and she out of an Old Joe mare. By my calculation, Cinnabar would carry 1/32nd draft ancestry. Red Dog himself might thus have had as much as 3/32nds draft—just enough to maintain the size and weight required in a good roper of the modern type.
